About this property
Main St Hideaway: Near Lee Street Beach: Northwestern University: Transit
Welcome to our cute, cozy, and separate guesthouse! Step inside and feel the warmth under your feet with heated tile flooring, with no neighbors above, below, or beside you. We’ve got you covered with essentials, plus thoughtful extras like pour-over coffee, French press, pizza stone, eco-friendly soaps, and a steamer for your clothing. Our space includes features designed with the environment in mind. And we happily welcome your furry friends to our guesthouse! Our yard is their yard! Working from home? We've got you covered with an optional foldable desk that's ready when you are and tucks away easily when you're not.
Other nearby attractions include Robert Crown Community Center with an indoor track, basketball courts, library, ice rink, outdoor soccer fields, pickleball ball and tennis courts! Just a 5-minute walk away. Both Northwestern and Loyola University are also nearby. And you can take a lovely short drive to experience the stunning architecture and serene gardens of one of the eight continental houses of worship in the world, the Baha'i temple.
You'll love being within walking distance of great restaurants and coffee shops. Plus, multiple grocery stores within a 2-mile radius.
Nature and city exploration are both within easy reach. Just a little over a mile away are the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan where you can enjoy the walking path, 11 miles north you can hike at Skokie Lagoons Nature Preserve, or go just a few miles more and enjoy a tranquil escape to the Chicago Botanic Gardens.
For music enthusiasts, this location offers convenient access to various venues, including Ravinia (14 miles) and the Salt Shed (9 miles). Movie and TV fans will appreciate the proximity to iconic John Hughes filming locations such as those from The Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and Home Alone. With a bit of luck, you might even catch "The Bear" filming and become an extra! Other nearby attractions on Chicago's north side include Second City, Lincoln Park Zoo, and Wrigley Field.
Getting around is a breeze. We're just a 15-minute walk to both the Purple Line city subway and the Metra train stops, which are conveniently located right next to each other, whisking you away to downtown Chicago. Plus, a Divvy bike-sharing station is nearby if you fancy a ride. Free street parking, just a few hundred feet away from the property.
